We've been looking at the aspects of doing a larp conversion for a while now.
Non combat skills will be pretty easy to convert over. Combat is a bit trickier
since a true larp doesn't use randomizers. I know a lot of people will argue my
last statement, but the fact is that until VtM came out and started calling
itself a larp, all "larps" were true live action, while live games with
randomizers were called "IL" (Interactive Literature) style games. VtM, CoC
Live, Passion Play, etc... are all IL style games. In a true larp you never need
to break character to see whether or not you succeed at an action.
I have a few different ideas simmering, when I put them on paper I'll post them.
